See the danger in getting lost in a throng?

Jokes aside, I hope they find him and that he's alright.

Hello - no one knows what happened to him. He was at a Casino on Thursday night, was seen leaving and then - nothing since then. Hasn't been at his home, hasn't been to his folks, hasn't been seen anywhere. He's on meds (not sure for what, but I think he was on AD's or something similar). But this is so not in his nature... lots of peeps worried obviously.

His folks especially. I stayed with them for a few weeks when he and I were working together some time back... then he stayed with me when he was working for me... man, his family must be so stressed right now...

I suppose it's kinda added to the worry the fact that a student at my work went missing a month ago and still hasn't been found. Had the search divers here cos my work is set in the grounds of a wee loch... The worst things do start bearing down in your mind when these things happen.

If it's any consolation, a friend of my nieces went missing just before christmas and turned up after a week - just had a brainstorm - no one's quite sure what happened to him, but he seems to be ok now - you must be up the wall?!:l

His family will be up the wall. I'm more just stunned and fearing the worst.

I had a flash of a half thought after posting that... about fate... I'm not a supporter of fate personally... but recently there seem to be a number of peeps around - young 'uns - going missing, or sadly dying... and it just seems to be a like a little flickering flash of realisation in my noggins about how precious life is. And how we (I!) can get so lost in out own little scenarios, our own little worlds of fear and control that we fail to really embrace life. We fail to let go. Funny - i was speaking to a wise old friend today (61, HIV, emphysema, gammy hips, smokes like a chimney, can drink like a fish) who I feel bad for not phoning more, (but am always saying to myself i cant be arsed - like WTF?) and he was talking about letting go - letting go of trying to control our lives; to be accepting of ourselves. And I'm thinking - absolutely! But it's so fucking hard! ... And even earlier today, Molly and Zen speaking about rehab - that struck chords too... and then I hear about my friend... and all of a sudden I'm thinking, really, is it worth the hassle trying to keep control?

Achully that's nada to do with fate - but just one of those moments today when you go - ah! is that a flicker of light going on in my noggins? is that me trying to flick the switch?!
